Newbie to the system here.
I'm going to GM DarkStryder and debating how to do starting equipment for the custom player characters.
Right now the thought is to give the players like 2000-4000 credits to spend (probably 2000) as like "consequence free" credits
But anything they spend beyond that will have some sort of catch or consequence attatched.
Any thoughts?
The link above is to the sector Guide if anyone needs it, I found it here:
I am planning a campaign for two players (both Jedi) set during the High Republic era and I want to set it in the Tampani sector. There are many references to how the House Pelagia suffered after the Empire came in and killed all the Jedi, but that is after the era I wish to set it in. I struggle with how to set the Pelagia House pre-Empire during the time of the High Republic.
Did they have a Jedi training academy on the home world of Pelagon? the boxed set mentions they had a lot of Jedi Bloodlines in the house, but I thought that Jedi had to give up their family ties?
I understand that there are probably no documented answers to these questions but I would love to read other peoples thoughts before I set it in stone (electronically) for my own use.
I have a friend that I’m hoping to run this game for him at some point soon. I know there are solo rules, but are there duet rules?
Howdy, so I'm getting into running Star Wars D6 for the first time with the Darkstryder campaign (I acquired the physical books for free from a partner) and it was suggested/requested of me that I let the custom player characters start with a small boon of character points so they're a little more balanced with the pre-gen characters.
What are your thoughts on this? Would that be fair or mess up the game?
Also.. are character points per-character or per-player in Darkstryder? I'm having trouble figuring that out.
It’s a neat book about children’s toys and their marketing in the 80s.
Howdy. Nothing big I want to ask here, just got curious while playing Jedi Survivor: Are there rules for Paired Lightsabers in this game?
Just to clarify in case anyone doesn't know, paired lightsabers are the fan term for when you have a twin pair of lightsabers that can be locked together at the pommels into a double-bladed lightsaber. If d6 doesn't have rules for them, how would you personally make them?
I know I could probably Google this but I wanna hear from the community.
I want to find this game, pdf, physical copies, anything I can get my hands on but where do I start? I have only heard of the Star Wars d6 game but dont actually know what its called.
Please reddit you're my only hope! Where/ how can I get these games to play and add to my collection?
In another post it was discussed that the "Fire Rate" rules are not completely clear in 2E R&E... A good discussion. While there was no official Errata for 2E R&e (save a couple of Clarifications in the AJ Rules Upgrade article) does any one know of any found errata? (Whether it be a post, webpage, or just your comments).
I know there are plenty of House rules, I'm more interested in clear errors that have proposed (whether semi-offical or unofficial) errata solutions.
Thank you in advance.
Hi everyone.
I have some duplicate books that are very much surplus to my needs. Before I go doing something on evilbay I thought people here may be interested.
Crisis on cloud city still has the cards and they are uncut/unused.
Before you get too excited I'm located in Australia so shipping is what it is.
Star Wars RPG players: Looking a ship for your crew that isn't the Millennium Falcon? West End Games had a great alternative ship for the PCs: THE LONG SHOT. I delve into the background of the transport, with lots of pics.
Does this character look ok? I used what I understood of rules as written for Second Edition Revised and Expanded. What powers would you suggest?
Dexterity 3D - Dodge 4D, Lightsaber 5D
Knowledge 2D
Mechanical 2D
Perception 3D
Strength 3D - Climbing/Jumping 3D+1
Technical 2D - First Aid 2D+2
Control 2D, Sense 2D, Alter 2D
Edit: Im not so much worried about the rules. Im pretty sure I got them right. Im asking does this look viable as a starting character? I understand the mechanics but haven't been able to play.
Version 3.9.0 of my Star Wars D6 generator is out. It includes several new ships, quality-of-life features, a revamped NPC generator, numerous bug fixes, and a game group management system where players can send ships, characters, and more to their GM for approval, so the GM can see everything at a glance (available only to registered users). A ticket system for admins if you’re hosting it yourself (available only to registered users). Registration requires only a username and password. No other data is stored—neither email nor anything else. If you forget your password, you can only reset it through an admin or using a code generated during setup, since I explicitly want to store only the absolute minimum amount of data.
Feel free to test it out at https://swd6gen.de or download it from GitHub:
https://github.com/1Bln21/swd6-character-generator
Maybe someone will even find the Easter egg I’ve hidden on the page.
Also thanks to all who tested so far and gave me feedback here or in my inbox.
May the force be with you all.
Basically the title, there are a lot of books for a lot of editions (both D6 and D20 having "revised" editions threw me off for a bit) and im kinda lost. What do i need to run the game, what are the differences between the base edition and the revised edition (especially asking from newbie perspective, ive only run dnd oneshots and the players are new aswell), and which books would you recommend i read or get stuff from?
Ive read that the system also has books to get "the feel" of the galaxy. Which ones are that?
Heya! I'm running a ttrpg of the ffg rpg, and a friend of mine showed be this app for the game: https://holocron.work/ which is like a general database and suite for running the game, it's really good. Well, that got me curious, is there an equivalent of this for the d6 rpg? Just curious is all.
